Stuart Broad put himself in elite company as one of just seven men in the history of Test cricket with a five-wicket haul and a century at Lord’s on their CV.

Broad’s six for 72 on day one of the Investec series against the West Indies helped restrict the tourists to 243 for nine, despite Shivnarine Chanderpaul’s unbeaten 87.

It also put him in the same bracket as his former team-mate Andrew Flintoff, and England’s greatest all-rounder Ian Botham – among others – following his career-best 169 against Pakistan at the home of cricket two years ago.

Broad is delighted with his own performance, and England’s too so far.

“Following Freddie and Beefy in the England dressing room is a huge honour,” he said. “But more important today is to have got nine wickets on the first day of the Test. We were aiming for seven wickets in the day ... to pick up nine, we’re delighted.”
